30 Things - 3/30

Describe your relationship with your spouse.


He is fun and likeable. He seems to know everyone and has many stories to tell. I watch him toss Violet around in the air with ease and her joy overflows. I always knew he would be a good dad. 
 
When we were young and first met, we became our own little family quite fast. I fell head over heals in love with him only two weeks after we officially met. At the end of our first date we sat in the car and talked for hours. Literally, hours. It always felt right and good.
 
He gives me good laughs, even though sometimes his jokes really aren't as funny as he thinks. He's a lighter person than me (most of the time.) He likes to socialize and laugh, while I'm over building castles in the sky and lost in deep contemplation. We are good at reigning each other in. He is the constant, I am the variable. He is strong, practical, and reliable. I am strong, emotional, and fickle.

Our relationship is often intense. Because both of our personalities are so powerful, we often swing between passionate love and passionate disagreement. We're both stubborn and resolute once our mind is made up. Sometimes our headstrong natures clash, but simultaneously it makes us one hell of a team.

We've lived in 5 different homes together and they always feel like a home, which is telling. He's there for me and I'm there for him. He's devoted to his career and to providing for his family. I'm devoted to following him wherever he may go and making sure he's not in it alone.

He will do just about anything to make me happy. He sometimes can't understand my reasoning or why I want to do certain things, but he supports me anyway. It's in his nature. One thing I know for sure about this man is that he is in it for the long haul. Once he chooses to give his love it's not going anywhere. At times that other people would have thrown in the towel with me, he just had a seat and grabbed a Diet Coke.
